Due to the newness of Andreas, and to the building’s boring reputation among non-athletic students, Covenant College has decided to purchase a ghost for its youngest residence hall. Unfortunately, President Halverson declined to comment on the purchase, and seemed genuinely surprised at the news. However, a young employee of the college who wishes to remain anonymous agreed to speak to our reporter. This employee is involved in the details of the recent transaction. “We just put an add in the paper,” she explained. “We actually got more offers than we could follow up on, but the prices were dirt cheap. One guy out near Stone Mountain actually offered to pay us! We’ve been scoping out our options, and I think we’ve narrowed it down to four options.” When asked if the ghost from Stone Mountain were under consideration, our informant answered, “Oh, no! We looked into that one pretty early on. The ghost had a habit of tracking in blood. Some of us thought that would be a plus, greater dramatic value, but the Facilities department wouldn’t have it, too messy, and Health Services said it’d be a health hazard. There was another ghost that caused flooding. We had to reject that one, too. We have enough trouble with that in our other buildings. The ghosts we’re looking at now specialize in the noise department. There’s even one that plays the bagpipes. I personally thing we’re going to go with that one.” So, a Scottish ghost for a Scottish school!
